All Tasks/Assessments: All assignments in the All

assignments, with feedback, each marking period.[/quote]

Wow, this is definitely not what our experience has been.  Particularly egregious is my 10th graders HS French class where they have had 4 all tasks total and only 2 have actually been graded (those were due the 2nd week of school).  All of them are also NRT. My kid has no idea if/when the other 2 assignments will be graded (one was submitted over a month ago) or what their grade will be at the end of this marking period.

Also feels really weird to have a MP grade that is almost all based on the first 2 weeks of school![/quote]

Dealing with this this for a few of DD's classes this year. DD did not do well at the beginning of the year and has had no chance to make up for it because there have not been any all tasks assignments since the first few weeks. It should be easy for MCPS to check this on their grading system. I think they should just make teachers aware this is the policy and give them tools to create more assignments that are easy to grade or that are graded by computer like multiple choice tests.[/quote]
